SIRIUS STAR SYSTEM: CELESTIAL HOME TO THE DOGON TRIBE OF AFRICA
THE DOGON KNEW THE LOCATION OF THE SIRIUS STAR SYSTEM B HUNDREDS OF YEARS BEFORE MODERN TELESCOPES COULD LOCATE IT, CITING A VISIT FROM AN ANCIENT ALIEN CIVILIZATION
The mythology and folklore of indigenous people is often written off as exactly that – legends and parables used to remember elders and teach younger generations lessons about morality. But what about a tribe whose lore gives a precise location of astronomical bodies and phenomena that aren’t discovered by modern science for hundreds of years?
The Dogon are that tribe and they have known for centuries that their ancestors are descendants of a species from the Sirius star system eight and half light years away.
